The trio of Roberto Olzer in recent years has established itself as one of the most popular Italian projects abroad. The previous album ,"Steppin Out", obtained important international recognition In japan: It was infact declared as the best instrumental album of 2013, and then again, more recently, a great reward as the best album of the last 10 years, by the Japanese magazine "critique magazine". Class, originality, purity of tone and personal touch are always the peculiar ingredients. It now adds the figure of Fulvio Sigurtà, one of the musicians "of the moment." A lovely drive, lyrical and truly extraordinary. A Great cd, with great music and an exceptional audiophile profile !!!From liner note : I could hardly meet a musician who, better than Fulvio Sigurtà, might be so much in harmony with our Trio’s aesthetics, or even our ethics. His never-ending imagination, technical mastery and musical awareness add a fourth dimension to the language that for years now I have been trying to develop with Yuri Goloubev and Mauro Beggio, extraordinary performers and composers. Fulvio’s contribution enriches with a smile the lyricism we are used to, and he does so with a twinkle of irony and airiness; a swaying of the body, a shivering of heart and guts filtered and interpreted by reason, by the intellect.
I believe Santayana’s famous quote - Everything in nature is lyrical in its ideal essence, tragic in its fate, and comic in its existence – embodies the insurmountable variety of feelings that we want to convey with our music.
